GEORGE ELIOT AND GEO. LEWEa Their Devotion as Noted by T. Adol phus Trollope in His Recollections. From the Philadelphia .Veins. Mr. Trollope’s recollections of the Lewes form the fullest and most interesting chap ters of his book. He was their constant cicerone on their several visits to Florence, and George Eliot, when preparing to write “Romola,” often drew on his wide and ulti mate knowledge of Florentine history, Mr. Trollop* very naively pats himself on the b ek for being ao superior a persou as to rise to the gre .t woman's level. “To roe,” he says, “ * * * she was a companion each minute of intercourse with whom was a delight. But I can easily understand that, despite her perfect readiness to place etself lor the nonce on the intellectual level of those with whom she chanced to be brought in contact, her society may not have been agreeable to all.” The are some very pleasant letters to Mr. Trollope from both Lewes and George Eliot; but pleasanter still is the picture be pivr of Lowes’ devotion to his “Polly.” “If any man could ever be said to have lived in another person, Lewes in those days, and to the end of his life, Uv sl in and for George Eliot. The talk of worshiping the ground she trod on and the like are pretty lover’s phrases, somet mes signifying much and sometimes very little. But it is true, ac cuiately and literally, of Lewes, that care for her. at once c iinorehensive and minute, u isieepi g watchfulness, lest she should das.i her foot against a stone, was never absent from his mind.” Elsewhere Mr. Trollope tells pretty little story whit h illustrates Lewes’ worship for his wife in a very characteristic way: “Once when he was wulkmg with my wife in the garden of their house in Surrey she turned th ■ conversation, wlii h ha-1 been touching other lop.es, to speak of George Eliot. ‘Oh,’ said Lewes, stopping short and looking at her with those bright eyes of his, •your blood lx on your own head! I diiln’t begin it; but if you wish to speak of her I am always rea ly.’” Iri the iigtit o! all this one sees what true a"d deep sympathy there was in the follow ing letter which Lowes wrote to Mr. Trol- I pe on hearing of M s. Browning’s death. \Vc quote a p eceding passage also as con taining a point of further interest: “Yester day Anthony dined with us, and as he had never stvn Carlyle he was glad to go down with us to tea at Chelsea. Carlyle had read and agreed with the West Indian book, a.id the two got on very well together; both Carlyle and Mrs. Carlyle liking Anthony, and I suppose it was reciprocal, though I did not see him af erward to hear what he thought. He told us of the sd news of Mrs, Browning's death Poor Browning! That was ray fir-t and remains my constant reflect.on. When i>eople love each other and have lived toget ter a 13' time they should die together. For myself I should not care in tie least about, dying. The dreadful thing to me would bo to live after 1 sing, if 1 should ever lose, the ono who lias mad e life for me.” If you want no oest SB Khoe in the city, buy them from Joseph Rosenheim A Cos.. > UliV (inoi)s.
